Description
Technical field
The present invention relates to the feed drive of printer and printer, the driving of itself and print head is synchronously carried out feed drive with printed mediums such as printer belts.
Background technology
At present, as this kind printer, known have a printer (for example, patent documentation 1) that comprises as lower member: print head, and (columns of dots) is that unit prints with point range; Conveying roller is synchronously carried printer belt (printed medium) with the driving of print head; And motor, constitute the drive source of this conveying roller.Under the situation that this kind printer begins after temporarily stopping to print action once more (printing by the user under the situation that stops to move or in the printing way, cutting off under the situation of action or the like), the driving of print head begins regularly and the driving of motor begins regularly if be uniformly set, then because the idle running (state that does not begin the conveying of printed medium though motor begins to drive) of the motor during the beginning once more of printing action, thereby cause printing the overlapping printing stain that causes of point range after point range before stopping begins once more with printing.Therefore, when printing begins once more, need when dallying, motor stop the processing (making the driving of print head begin regularly the processing of the constant time lag that the driving with respect to motor begins) (with reference to TOHKEMY 2003-237155 communique) of the driving of print head hereinafter referred to as " idle running etc. are pending ".
Yet in fact the time (hereinafter referred to as " idle running amount ") of motor idle running is according to having or not cut-out action, parts deviation etc. to change.The predicted value (the instrumentation result's that tester is measured central value) that Figure 14 A～Figure 14 C shows the idle running amount is 3 points, be that the deviation of the idle running amount of actual needs is the print result D under ± 1 situation.In Figure 14 A～Figure 14 C, left is to being that the throughput direction, top and bottom of printer belt is to being the width of printer belt, the width of the line of column direction (line) expression point range.And, the numeral of putting down in writing among the figure and the line of line direction are represented the arrangement (first element～the 8th element) of heater element, and example shows following situation: to make first element (D1) heating in the printing of initial point range, in the printing of ensuing point range, make the such main points of second element (D2) heating, thereby print and form the oblique line (situation of D1～D8) according to putting element number one by one.And four some D1～D4 that are equivalent to the 1st point～4th are the points that are printed before printing stops, and four some D5～D8 that are equivalent to the 5th point～8th print the point that is printed after beginning once more.
Shown in Figure 14 A, be to be equivalent to if idle running of carrying out at 3 etc. is pending, then can obtain the desirable print result that 8 some D1～D8 arrange point-blank under 3 the situation of predicted value of idle running amount in the idle running amount of actual needs.On the other hand, as shown in Figure 14B, idle running amount at actual needs is to be equivalent to measure under 2 the situation of minimum of a value, if idle running of carrying out at 3 etc. is pending, then with respect to the action of print head, cause carrying action in advance, therefore, between the point range of the 4th point (D4) and the 5th point (D5), produce the gap.And, shown in Figure 14 C, idle running amount at actual needs is to be equivalent to measure under the peaked situation at 4, if idle running of carrying out at 3 etc. is pending, then cause the action of print head to be equivalent to 1 point in advance, therefore, the 4th point (D4) and the 5th point (D5) are printed (printing) in same column, have produced the printing stain.
Like this, if it is pending to dally etc. according to the predicted value of idle running amount, then under the less situation (situation of Figure 14 B) of the idle running amount of comparing actual needs with predicted value or under opposite more situation (situation of Figure 14 C), can produce printing gap or printing stain, thereby press quality is caused damage.Even same amount especially, the gap between point range are also more obvious than the printing stain, so, need further to reduce printing gap in order to improve outward appearance.
Summary of the invention
The present invention in view of the above problems, purpose is to provide the feed drive method therefor of printer and printer, even under its situation about after temporarily stopping to print, beginning once more, also can suppress to print the generation in the gap between the point range after point range before stopping and printing begin once more.
According to an aspect of the present invention, provide printer, it comprises: print head, print with point range unit; Conveying roller is synchronously carried printed medium with the driving of print head; Motor, the drive source of formation conveying roller; Storage part is used for storage idle running premeasuring, and wherein, the idle running premeasuring is the idle running amount that prediction produces when the driving of motor begins; And drive control part, be used to control the driving of print head and motor, wherein, under the situation that drive control part begins after temporarily stopping to print action once more, with the first idle running amount drive motor less than the idle running premeasuring, carry out the printing of the initial point range data that print when beginning to print once more, and further after, begin printing once more according to initial point range data with the residual quantity drive motor after the idle running premeasuring deducts the first idle running amount.
According to a further aspect in the invention, provide the feed drive method therefor of printer, wherein, printer comprises: print head, print with point range unit; Conveying roller is synchronously carried printed medium with the driving of print head; And motor, the drive source of formation conveying roller, the feed drive method therefor of above-mentioned printer comprises: the step that temporarily stops to print action; To predict that the idle running amount that produces is as the idle running premeasuring when the driving of motor begins, only with the first idle running amount drive motor less than the idle running premeasuring, print head carries out the step based on the printing of printing the initial point range data that print when beginning once more; And only with after the residual quantity drive motor of idle running premeasuring after deducting the first idle running amount, begin the step of printing once more according to initial point range data by print head.
Based on these structures, under the situation about after temporarily stopping to print action, beginning once more, because only to come drive motor than the prediction first little idle running amount of idle running premeasuring that prediction takes place when the driving of motor begins, and based on the printing of the initial point range data that when beginning to print once more, print (below, be called " idle running printing "), so can suppress the generation in the gap of (between the point range after point range before printing stops and printing begin once more) between point range.Promptly, when only stopping the driving of print head by the idle running premeasuring, under the situation of the idle running amount of actual needs less than the idle running premeasuring, action with respect to print head, carry action in advance owing to make, thus cause producing between point range the gap, but according to this structure, owing to can hide this gap by the idle running printing, so can make the generation of printing gap not eye-catching.And idle running printing is because the initial point columns certificate that print when beginning once more based on printing, so the point range after the idle running printing is in harmonious proportion mutually with point range after point range before printing stops and printing begin once more, and prints by idle running and can not damage press quality.
In addition, " the idle running amount that the driving of prediction motor takes place when beginning " is meant from motor and begins to drive beginning required predicted time till the conveying of beginning printed medium.And, " printing action " be meant print head action and with the action of the synchronous conveying roller of the driving of this print head.
In above-mentioned printer, preferred storage portion stores is carried out instrumentation result's the central value of instrumentation or mean value as the idle running premeasuring to the idle running amount by experiment, and the first idle running amount is equivalent to the minimum of a value of measurement result.
Printing gap becomes problem under the situation of idle running amount less than the idle running premeasuring of actual needs, cause the big more printing gap of its difference big more, but according to this structure, because according to the printing of dallying of instrumentation result's minimum of a value, so even once idle running is printed and also can be made printing gap not eye-catching effectively.
In above-mentioned printer, preferred printer also comprises: the printed data generating unit is used to generate printed data; And clipper, be used to cut off printed medium, so that control according to drive control part, finish printing the length that partly has based on printed data, wherein, drive control part is according to printed data, with respect to the length L H between print head and the clipper, beginning the suitable preceding space length LA of length till the printing starting position with front end from printed medium becomes under the situation of LA＜LH, in the moment of the printing of having carried out being equivalent to (LH-LA), temporarily stop the printing action, and after cutting off printed medium, begin the printing action once more by clipper.
According to this structure, under the situation of the preceding space length LA＜print head of printed data and the length L H between the clipper, owing to cut off printed medium, so can obtain (according to printed data) print result of wanting as the user in moment of the printing of having carried out (LH-LA).That is to say, under the situation of not carrying out this cut-out processing, as long as printed medium is not carried to the direction opposite with print direction and is returned, otherwise just can only obtain the print result of LA 〉=LH, but handle by carrying out this cut-out, thereby need not to carry out the reverse conveying of printed medium, just can obtain the print result of LA＜LH.And, when carrying out such cut-out processing,, there is the problem that printing gap takes place because the structure of shearing device etc. think that the deviation of motor idle running amount is bigger.Therefore, by with dally the printing combination of the present invention, can expect bigger effect.

At this, stop mechanism 81 to describe to the counter-rotating that is assembled into conveying mechanism side gear row 33.When being the switching of shaft coupling mechanism 24, counter-rotating stops mechanism 81 to be used to suppress the despining of drum roll 17.Promptly, utilizing shaft coupling mechanism 24 to give under the situation of band shut-off mechanism 22 with being connected of motor 31 from 21 conversions of band conveying mechanism, when stopping the driving of motor 31, because the counter-rotating of the strain of drum roll 17 or printer belt T stops the effect with elasticity etc., causes drum roll 17 despinings (rotation of the direction opposite with throughput direction).Counter-rotating stops mechanism 81 to be used to stop the despining (saying it is that this despining amount is reduced closely) of this drum roll 17.
Shown in Fig. 3 to Fig. 5, Fig. 8 A and Fig. 8 B (Fig. 5, Fig. 8 A and Fig. 8 B represent in the mode of counter-rotating up and down), counter-rotating stops mechanism 81 to comprise: counter-rotating blocking portion carrier 83, rotated freely ground axle suspension on gear shaft, this gear shaft is used for fixing conveyor side input gear 42 and conveyor side first idler gear 44; And counter-rotating blocking portion planetary gear 84, rotated freely ground axle suspension in counter-rotating blocking portion carrier 83 with conveyor side first idler gear, 44 engagements and quilt.
When drum roll 17 despinings, its despun power makes conveyor side first idler gear 44 (conveyor side input gear 42) rotation by drum gear 50, conveyor side the 3rd idler gear 49, reduction gearing 48, branch's gear 46 and conveyor side second idler gear 45.When 44 rotations of conveyor side first idler gear, rotate linkedly with the counter-rotating blocking portion planetary gear 84 of its engagement, and by with the friction of conveyor side first idler gear 44,83 rotations of counter-rotating blocking portion carrier, counter-rotating blocking portion planetary gear 84 is engaged in conveyor side second idler gear 45 (with reference to Fig. 8 A).Based on this, on conveyor side second idler gear 45 and branch's gear 46, the power that transmits by drum roll 17 sides, offset, thereby stop the despining of drum roll 17 with power from 84 conduction of counter-rotating blocking portion planetary gear.In addition, if conveyor side input gear 42 (conveyor side first idler gear 44) positive rotation (to the throughput direction rotation), the blocking portion of then reversing carrier 83 is to the rotation of tossing about, and breaks away from from conveyor side second idler gear 45, by common mode rotating band conveying mechanism 21 (with reference to Fig. 8 B).And, on the rotation track of counter-rotating blocking portion carrier 83, tossing about of conveyor side second idler gear 45 be provided with the brake (stopper) 85 of the rotation that is used to limit counter-rotating blocking portion carrier 83, counter-rotating blocking portion carrier 83 rotates between brake 85 and conveyor side second idler gear 45.
Like this, stop mechanism 81 to be assembled into the input side (conveyor side second idler gear 45) of conveying mechanism side gear row 33 by reversing, thereby when drum roll 17 despinings, this despining power is by speedup and be sent to counter-rotating prevention mechanism 81, and (for example make its action, counter-rotating stops mechanism 81 with its interlock object (counter-rotating blocking portion gear 83, or conveyor side first idler gear 44) moves in the mode of rotating 5 °, and being under 1/50 the situation from drum roll 17, can despining be stopped) with 5 * 1/50=0.1 in the drum roll 17 ° rotation mode until the deceleration of branch's gear 46.Based on this, can improve the servo-actuated of counter-rotating in stoping, and the despining amount can make the despining of drum roll 17 time reduces.Therefore, can suppress printer belt T and oppositely carry, and can carry out the good printing treatment of precision printer belt T.
Next, with reference to Fig. 9, the control system of being with printer 1 is described.Band printer 1 comprises central control part 100, press key input section 5, display part 110, printed data generating unit 120, storage part 130, drive control part 140, encoder 61, motor 31, shaft coupling mechanism 24 and the print head 13 main composition key element as control system.
Central authorities' control part 100 is made of CPU etc., totally controls each several part.Press key input section 5 comprises various buttons 4, is used for the user and carries out information input operation and edit operation.Display part 110 comprises LCD 6, is used to show the text message and the print review that are transfused to.Printed data generating unit 120 generates the printed data that is used for carrying out the printing of wanting on printer belt T according to the information by press key input section 5 inputs.Storage part 130 is made of ROM or RAM, is used for the control program and the control data of file printer 1.As control data, except that character font data and various set informations etc., also storage pending idle running premeasuring such as be used to implement to dally.Should " idle running etc. be pending " be meant the idling loss the when driving of having considered motor 31 begins and the driving of print head 13 be begun regularly to begin with respect to the driving of motor 31 processing (hereinafter describing in detail) of constant time lag.In addition, as " idle running premeasuring ", store the central value of the instrumentation value that is used to specify sample plot instrumentation idling loss amount and the value (value of central value and minimum of a value itself or central value and (central value-minimum of a value) gained etc.) of minimum of a value.
Next, with reference to Figure 10 A, Figure 10 B, Figure 11, Figure 12 A, Figure 12 B and Figure 13 A～Figure 13 C, the printing based on above-mentioned drive control part 140 is stopped (interruption) describe until the driving control that printing begins once more.At first, with reference to Figure 10 A and Figure 10 B, the concrete processing (stop to cut off and handle) that the needs printing is interrupted describes.In the band printer 1 of present embodiment, when the printing beginning, the front end of printer belt T is in the position of band clipper 11, and on the other hand, print head 13 is in the downstream of the throughput direction of band clipper 11.Therefore, constitute at band printer 1 under the situation of the reverse conveying that does not print band T, will inevitably produce the preceding blank of the size of space size (distance between print head-clipper) that is equivalent between print head 13 and the band clipper 11.Therefore, in the present embodiment, this preceding blank that certainly leads to is carried out the so-called processing that stops to cut off: under the preceding blank short situation that is set, after beginning printing (printing is carried), temporarily stop printing, cut off the unwanted part of printer belt T, and further begin printing once more.
In addition, shown in Figure 10 A, " preceding blank " is meant from the front end as the label Ta of finished product and begins length (LA) till the point range that comprises initial printing points.Blank (LA) sets to such an extent that be shorter than between print head-clipper under the distance situation of (LH) before will being somebody's turn to do, and needs printing to interrupt.Therefore, treatment step in such cases is shown in Figure 10 B.At first, printing the zero hour, the front end of printer belt T is in clipper position (step 1).Under this state, carry out the printing (as shown in the figure, comprising band conveying to the left) of (LH-LA), temporarily stop printing action (step 2).Then, stopping to print the fore-end (diagram oblique line part) that cuts off type belt T under the state of action, and beginning printing (step 3) once more.Example shown in Figure 10 B, when stopping to cut off processing, when printing stops and when beginning printing the both need under the situation of driving of heater element (in illustrated embodiment, in the printing way of letter " A ", stop printing), if produce the gap between the point range after point range before printing stops and the printing beginning, then cause this gap eye-catching, thereby damaged press quality significantly.
On the other hand, the band printer 1 of present embodiment comprises as above-mentioned shaft coupling mechanism 24 and counter-rotating prevention mechanism 81 owing to constituting, therefore, about stop from this printing (step 2) until printing once more (action of step 3), the cut-out of following action after, not want part: the counter-rotating, the shaft coupling mechanism 24 that accompanies therewith of action, motor 31 of the prevention mechanism 81 that stops, reverse of motor 31 that is used for rotating band conveying mechanism 21 to the switching of being with clipper 11 sides, be with the action of clipper 11 and stopping of motor 31.And, after the shaft coupling that just changes, accompanies therewith 24 of ensuing motor 31 stops the releasing of mechanism 81 to the switching of drum roll 17 sides, based on the rotation of the drum roll 17 of the action of conveying mechanism side gear row 33 and counter-rotating, begin printing once more.
Yet, in this printing begins once more, just changeing till the conveying of printer belt T begins from motor 31 beginnings, because motor 31 such as shaft coupling switching become idle running.At this moment,, then under the state of not carrying printer belt T, print, become the bad reason of printing if synchronously drive print head 13 with the idle running of motor 31.Therefore, need this idle running of prediction and make the driving of print head 13 begin to postpone, and need to be grasped the idle running amount (idling loss amount) of this moment.
At this moment, with reference to Figure 11, the occurring principle of idling loss is described.As the former of the idling loss of motor 31 thereby exist: the first, the handoff loss of shaft coupling mechanism 24; The second, constitute the clearance loss that the backlash of each gear of conveying mechanism side gear row 33 causes; Three, the deformation loss that causes of the deformation of drum roll 17 (cylinder rubber).
The handoff loss of first shaft coupling mechanism 24 is the losses that are used to make gear 40 planetary motions between gear 43 and gear 42.In this case, exist the tooth of running into gear 42 from the tooth of gear 40 to begin uncertain factor (with reference to Figure 11 (a)～(c)) till engagement, so that the idle running amount is not strict constant.
The clearance loss that second backlash causes is known, between two gears of engagement, because the contact of the flank of tooth is opposite between rotating and reverse, thus each clearance loss that accumulative total is caused by backlash in conveying mechanism side gear row 33, thus become the idle running amount of motor 31.Certainly owing to the error of the sum of errors assembling on making, the idle running amount is not strict constant.
The deformation wear of the 3rd drum roll 17 is following losses: in the band of reality is carried, because the transporting resistance (dynamic friction and static friction) of printer belt T, after drum roll 17 begins rotation and cylinder rubber deformation, the conveying of printer belt T begins, so the distortion of cylinder rubber (P1, P2) causes loss.In embodiment, be provided with counter-rotating as described above and stop mechanism 81, when the conveying of printer belt T stops, though the cylinder rubber (P1) after the distortion turns back to original shape, but in this way, counter-rotating stops mechanism's 81 actions and cylinder rubber to keep the state of distortion.The degree of this distortion (P1) is because the tooth of running into gear 45 from the tooth of gear 84 begins uncertain factor (with reference to Figure 11 (d)～(f)) till engagement and difference.And when beginning the band conveying once more, the transporting resistance of printer belt T is a static friction force, after cylinder rubber is compared when stopping with conveying and is carried out moderate finite deformation (P2), and the conveying of beginning printer belt T.In the band printer 1 of present embodiment, by being set, counter-rotating stops mechanism 81, when stoping mechanism 81, counter-rotating compares with not being provided with, and can reduce the deformation wear of cylinder rubber, and can reduce its departure, but can not ignore this idling loss fully.And, since the individual difference of tape drum 8, environment temperature, plus-pressure etc., the degree difference of the distortion of cylinder rubber (P1, P2).Therefore, idle running amount in such cases is not strict constant.
Like this, the rotation from motor 31 begin until printer belt T be transferred during, though motor idle running is should the idle running amount non-constant owing to comprise uncertain factor.Therefore, instrumentation idle running amount, and according to this instrumentation result, control and Motor Drive begin the delay timing that the driving of relative print head 13 begins.Below, with reference to Figure 12 A and Figure 12 B and Figure 13 A～Figure 13 C, the driving that makes this print head 13 is begun timing describe in detail with respect to the processing (idle running etc. are pending) that the driving of motor 31 begins constant time lag.
Figure 12 A and Figure 12 B are used to try to achieve the estimated value of pending required idle running amount (idle running premeasuring) such as idle running and the schematic diagram of calculating formula.Shown in Figure 12 A, be set at as estimated value: the encoder blade of every bit (protuberance of otch plectane 62) is four in eight blades of whole encoders.This means based on transporting of four pulses and form a point.And, set motor 31 to stop the moment of inertia (motor 31 stops power supply and supplies with the rotation amount of back when stopping fully) be N pulse (wherein, N＜4), mechanical loss amount (waste of machinery) is 8 ± 4 pulses.This mechanical loss amount comprises above-mentioned idling loss amount (based on the handoff loss of shaft coupling mechanism 24, constitute the idle running amount of the deformation wear that the distortion of clearance loss that the backlash of each gear of conveying mechanism side gear row 33 causes and drum roll 17 causes).That is to say that the deviation of mechanical loss amount ± 4 pulses are represented to be caused by the deviation of above-mentioned idling loss amount.And this departure is the value that obtains according to the measurement result of testing instrumentation idle running amount.
Shown in Figure 12 B, idle running premeasuring, i.e. the idle running amount of prediction when the driving of motor 31 begins once more) be the value that motor is stopped after the moment of inertia correction value and the addition of mechanical loss amount in theory.Herein, so-called " motor stops the moment of inertia correction value " is meant that umber of pulse (4 pulse) from every bit deducts the value after motor stops the moment of inertia (N pulse).That is, if the estimated value shown in Figure 12 A is used in the idle running premeasuring, then become (4-N)+(8 ± 4) pulse, its maximum is (16-N) pulse, and central value is (12-N) pulse, and minimum of a value is (8-N) pulse.
Like this, though can calculate the idle running premeasuring in theory, but for example, begin constant time lag be equivalent to the to dally central value of premeasuring if make the driving of print head 13 begin regularly driving with respect to motor 31, then under the situation of idle running amount less than central value of actual needs (with reference to the conventional example of Figure 14 B), cause producing printing gap.Therefore, in idle running of present embodiment etc. is pending, when after temporarily stopping the printing action, beginning once more, motor 31 is only dallied by the idle running amount (the first idle running amount) of minimum of a value (minimum of a value of measurement result) based on the idle running premeasuring, carry out based on the initial point columns certificate that print when beginning once more of printing printing (below, this printing is called " idle running printing (dummy printing) "), and further by from the idle running amount (idle running premeasuring) of central value, deduct based on the idle running premeasuring based on the residual quantity after the idle running amount of minimum of a value motor 31 is dallied after, the initial point columns that print when beginning once more according to printing is according to beginning printing once more.
Figure 13 A～Figure 13 C is the schematic diagram of the print result D when pending such as idle running of having carried out present embodiment.With respect to the conventional example shown in Figure 14 A～Figure 14 C, its difference is: the idle running printing that (before the printing of some D5) appends a D0 before beginning printing once more.In addition, in order to should be readily appreciated that diagram, motor is stopped that the moment of inertia is set at 0 pulse (N=0), the central value of setting the idle running premeasuring is 12 pulses (=3 point), set minimum of a value is 8 pulses (=2 point), set maximum 16 pulses (=4 point), and the deviation of setting the idle running amount is ± 4 pulses (=± 1 points).And, with the conventional example of Figure 14 A～Figure 14 C similarly, left is to the throughput direction of expression printer belt, above-below direction is represented the width of printer belt T, the line of column direction is represented the width (1 unit) of point range, the numeral of putting down in writing among the figure and the line of line direction are represented the arrangement of heater element, set with the 1st point～4th four suitable some D1～D4 to stop the preceding point of setting for printing, and setting with the 5th point～8th four suitable some D5～D8 is to print the point that begins the back printing once more.
As shown in FIG. 13A, in the idle running amount of actual needs is under the situation of the 3 points central value of premeasuring (be equivalent to dally), in the minimum of a value (2 point) of only idle running idle running premeasuring afterwards, carry out printing (the idle running printing: some D0) of the initial point range data that print when beginning once more based on printing.At this constantly, because motor 31 idle running and fail normally to be with conveying, so the printing position of the some D0 on the tape feeding direction is offset some positions (forming the position skew less than 1 size) from a D4.And, from idle running printing (some D0), make motor only 31 drive the central value-minimum of a value of the premeasuring that is equivalent to dally (residual quantity: 1 point) back (promptly, from Motor Drive zero hour, only idle running is equivalent to dally after the central value of premeasuring), carry out the printing (D5) of the initial point columns certificate that print when beginning once more based on printing once more.(after D6 and the D6) then proceeds 1 printing with respect to per 4 pulses.Like this, if be equivalent to carry out under the situation of central value of idle running amount the idle running of present embodiment handles in the idle running amount of actual needs, then when the 5th printing, because some D0 and some D5 cause the printing stain that takes place, even identical amount printing stain does not have printing gap eye-catching yet, so visually be difficult to become problem.
On the other hand, shown in Figure 13 B, be under the situation of the 2 points minimum of a value of premeasuring (be equivalent to dally), when idle running of carrying out present embodiment etc. is pending in the idle running amount of actual needs, beginning to make it only to dally after 2 constantly from Motor Drive, the printing of dallying (some D0).In this moment, owing to motor 31 does not dally, so some D0 is offset with the position of putting 1 of D4 generation.And,,, begin the printing of the 5th point (D5) once more only dallying after 1 from idle running printing (some D0).That is to say,, thereby can hide owing to the gap (with reference to Figure 14 B) between the point range of pending the 4th point (D4) that produces such as the idle running of conventional example and the 5th point (D5) by idle running printing (some D0).In addition, in the example of Figure 13 B, owing to do not have the mechanical loss amount constantly in the printing of idle running printing (some D0), some D0 and some D5 become 1 position skew.Relative therewith, in Figure 13 A, be not have the mechanical loss amount fully constantly, so some D0 is offset with the position that some D5 becomes less than 1 owing to print the printing of (some D0) in idle running.
On the other hand, shown in Figure 13 C, be under the situation of the 4 points maximum of premeasuring (be equivalent to dally) when the idle running amount of actual needs, when the idle running of carrying out present embodiment etc. is pending, after only carrying out 2 idle running, the printing of dallying (some D0).At this constantly, because motor 31 idle running, so the position of the printing position of some D0 and some D4 almost becomes same position.And, from idle running printing,, begin the printing of the 5th point (D5) once more, but cause a D0 and to put D5 almost completely overlapping making after motor 31 drives at 1.This be because: because mechanical loss amount (the idle running amount of actual needs) is big, so in the printing of idle running printing (some D0) constantly, the reduction of mechanical loss amount is lacked than the example of Figure 13 A.In addition, pending according to idle running of present embodiment etc., even in this case, also can cause a D0 and some D5 to produce the printing stain, even but under the idle running amount of actual needs is equivalent to dally the situation of minimum of a value of premeasuring (Figure 13 B situation), owing to can not produce printing gap, see the quality (visually) that can improve the printing finished product on the whole.
More than, as above-mentioned, according to present embodiment, under the situation about after temporarily stopping to print action, beginning once more, because only the minimum of a value of the idle running premeasuring that produces when beginning with the driving of prediction motor 31 is come the drive motor 31 line space transfer printing brush of going forward side by side, so can suppress the generation in the gap of (between the point range after point range before printing stops and printing begin once more) between point range.And, because the initial point range data that print when beginning once more based on printing are printed in idle running, be in harmonious proportion mutually with the point range of printing after beginning once more so the point range after the printing of dallying stops preceding point range with printing, and can damage press quality by the idle running printing.And, because idle running printing is based on the minimum of a value of idle running premeasuring, thus with under the situation of the printing of dallying between the minimum of a value～central value of idle running premeasuring, compare, can make printing gap not eye-catching effectively.
In addition, in the present embodiment, though the present invention is applicable to the band printer 1 that prints on printer belt T, certainly the present invention is also applicable to synchronously carrying the printer (printing equipment) of printed medium with the driving of print head 13.
And, in the present embodiment, though illustration comprise that shaft coupling mechanism 24 and counter-rotating stop the band printer 1 of mechanism 81, also can be applicable to the present invention in the printer that does not comprise them.And, in the present embodiment, follow the idle running that stops to cut off processing etc. pending though set forth, even do not following (printing the situation of shut-down operation etc. by the user) when cutting off the printing of handling and interrupting, it is pending preferably to dally etc.That is, the present invention is also applicable to the printer that does not have shearing device.
And, in the present embodiment, though only the minimum of a value of the idle running premeasuring that produces when beginning with the driving of prediction motor 31 is come the drive motor 31 line space transfer printing brush of going forward side by side, but also can not be the minimum of a value of idle running premeasuring, but only to come go forward side by side line space transfer printing brush of drive motor 31 greater than the minimum of a value of idle running premeasuring and less than the amount of central value.And, in the present embodiment, after the printing of dallying, though only come drive motor 31 and begin printing once more with the difference of (central value-minimum of a value) of the premeasuring that is equivalent to dally, but also can be after difference being halved and carries out the idle running printing second time, after identical idle running amount (half of the value of residual quantity), begin printing once more.That is the printing of can repeatedly dallying.
And, be continuously at the number of times of idle running printing under 1 time the situation, also can reduce from the driving of motor 31 and begin to the Motor Drive amount that begins once more to print (idle running premeasuring).That is, also can reduce the idle running amount (residual quantity) that begins once more until printing from idle running printing beginning.According to this structure,, can make printing gap more not obvious though the printing stain becomes big.And, be not that the Motor Drive amount that will stop from printing beginning till printing begins once more is set at the central value of idle running premeasuring, but its mean value as the instrumentation result of instrumentation idle running amount is got final product.
And, each inscape of the band printer 1 of present embodiment can be provided as program.And, this procedure stores can be provided in various recording mediums (CD-ROM, flash memory etc.).In addition, in the scope that does not break away from purport of the present invention, can suitably be out of shape.
